Rumi film

The newmarket balance center will be showing an acclaimed film that has already been shown across Canada. A film about Rumi the sufi poet/turning master. This work, I've been told, tends to create an emotional experience that opens the heart with beautiful impressions.
We at the balance center are showing this for many reasons, some of which are:
- to respond to the fear of the unknown demonstrated at recent protests against a mosque opening.
- this is the U.N.s, year of Rumi.
-to provide positive impressions about esoteric islam to counteract pop media's hyped up negative portrayal of islam which seems to be basically u.s. terrorwar propaganda.
- to perform a ceremony for harmonizing all energies around interfaith tolerance and support and for the real benefit and liberation of all sentient beings without exception.
-etc.
Come see this film mar 13th at the newmarket public library in the main presentation space, 5 bucks suggested donation. From the posters ive seen, this movie was usually shown for 15-20 dollars a ticket , but we managed to get it for 5! All proceeds go to the film maker (she deserves it!)who will actually be on hand speaking about the film! None of the 5$ goes to the balance center, so consider a small donation to us as well to support future similar projects. The film will be preceeded and finished by a brief planet honouring standingstoneceremony by sunjye the shaman!
